Last week I went down to the river Tweed with two of my good friends, Nikita and Robert. It was about a 15 minute walk and it was absolutely gorgeous.
Two days ago for P.E. class we went to the local gym (super modern, very large). It made me smile that I was on this small school bus bumping along through the countryside watching sheep graze just a few feet away. Very scenic.
Least favorite food this school week was the mashed potatoes which had no taste. However, the soups for lunch are absolutely amazing and I love the ham sandwiches as well. I have yet to eat a bacon buddy (by far my favorite British breakfast option).
I'm missing circus and the feeling after the intense workout it gives me. Hopefully I won't be too out of shape when I come back home! Luckily, I have been always up and about and playing football (and rugby) fairly regularly.
This week about ten Argentinian guys and girls all around my age have come to stay at Longridge for a few days. Tomorrow I think I will scrimmage against them. So excited! I absolutely love being around so many people from so many different cultures. It is strange that although we are from completely different sides of the world we are all so alike! We all learned how to speak, write, laugh, learn in similar ways. It is so interesting comparing and contrasting our lives and experiences. One thing they all have in common is everyone likes to make fun of my accent :)
